Fluvial Modelling: Unpacking Techniques and Applications
Wednesday 26th March | 12 PM GMT
Flood modelling uses predicted river flows, rainfall, and coastal levels combined with topographic data and flow equations to generate crucial flood risk information, such as depth, velocity, flood levels, and hazards. But why is flood modelling so important? In this introductory webinar, James Youle, Hydraulic Modeller at Jacobs, will explore the various reasons, from managing flood incidents to designing new defences.
James will guide you through the basics of 1D and 2D modelling, highlighting their unique advantages. You’ll also get to see Flood Modeller’s advanced 1D and 2D solvers in action during a live demonstration. Additionally, the webinar will provide valuable insights into selecting the best modelling approach for your study, considering factors like complexity, budget, and specific project needs.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from an expert and see how Flood Modeller can revolutionise your approach to flood risk management!
